Mad Mission 3: Our Man from Bond Street - Sam Hui (1984) - New World Centre, Tsim Sha Tsui

Not the most aesthetically pleasing of buildings, but the New World Centre was demolished a few years back and replaced by something arguably much worse (in my opinion anyway). This is where the diamond exhibition is being held and where Kingkong and cohorts, dressed as Santas, perform their rather ambitious heist (despite getting the wrong gemstone). The interior was a studio set but there are a few shots on location of the area, including from the roof, that are worth including here.

Although the NWC has gone,those steps are still there
